Read the following text and the questions. For each question, choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D).

Sustainable development means: a better quality of life now and for generations to come. A widely-used definition of 'sustainable development' is: 'development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs'.

It means not using up resources faster than the planet can replenish, or re-stock them and joining up economic, social and environmental goals.

It also influences decision making within organizations, and therefore can go towards forming principles and business 'values' - for example, providing information to the public in an open and accessible way and involving people and communities who are affected by those decisions. Or in openly reporting how they run their business and the care they take about the local environment and the people that work for them.

These principles can also apply to government policies - for example, in planning regulations for green buildings and technologies.

It is also about being clear and responsible about the use of scientific, and other, evidence - for example, about levels of pollution or carbon emissions.

Which of the following principles can also apply to government policies?

(a) The principles of using the available resources in the environment. (b) The principles of providing information to the public in an open and accessible way. (c) The principles of local environment and the people who live in it. (d) The principles of using scientific evidence about levels of pollution.
